Labor Day, the first Monday in September, is a creation of the labor movement and is dedicated to the social and economic achievements of American workers. It constitutes a yearly national tribute to the contributions workers have made to the strength, prosperity, and well-being of our country. The first governmental recognition came through municipal ordinances passed during 1885 and 1886. Some records show that Peter J. McGuire, general secretary of the Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners and a cofounder of the American Federation of Labor was first to suggest a day to honor workers. Many believe that Matthew Maguire, a machinist and later the secretary of Local 344 of the International Association of Machinists in Paterson, N.J. founded the holiday and actually proposed the holiday in 1882 while serving as secretary of the Central Labor Union in New York.
Those in Active Military Service Lord, hold our troops in your loving hands, Protect them as they protect us. Bless them and their families for the sacrifices they make for us in our hour of need and give us peace. We ask this in the Name of Jesus, Our Lord and Savior. Amen
Pray for Our Military Sergeant Scott MacConnell Lance Corporal Edward Zarzecki Lt. Col. John Anthony Coppola, US Army Chief Blake Conley, USN Staff Sergeant Stephen Witherow, USAF 2nd Lt. Ryan Tanguay, US Army 2nd Lt. Adam Sjoholm, US Army Pvt Michael John Mento, US Army

RELIGION DEFINED I do not know how philosophers may ultimately define religion; but from Micah to James it has been defined as service to one's fellow human rendered by following the great rule of justice and mercy, of wisdom and righteousness. --Theodore Roosevelt

Parishioners have asked: What are the 3 projects designated in the case statement for the parish rebate? (see more details from the Oct. 16, 2016 bulle n) Life Safety Requirements for Saint Mary Parish Campus - Saint Mary Parish must fully update its security features for the safety of all parishioners. Such upgrades will likely include magneƟc locks, emergency exit upgrades, and idenƟficaƟon cards. Internal Church LighƟng - Capital improvements are necessary for maintaining our blessed physical plant. A porƟon of the monies raised will improve the church’s lighƟng infrastructure. Emergency and Stewardship - Saint Mary Parish must improve its financial stability to ensure uninterrupted and quality service. To do this, Saint Mary Parish will establish a fund to help provide parish support during Ɵmes of emergency or financial strain. In the past, the Diocese has provided support in this area; however, it is prudent for the Parish to improve its financial stability. Saint Mary Parish MINIMUM goal, as established by the Diocese of Trenton, was $1,250,000 in which we included 3 years of the parish’s contribuƟon to the Annual Catholic Appeal. Parish’s NECESSARY goal is $2,250,000. NOTE: 70% of all gifts received after reaching our minimum goal come back (rebate) to the parish and will go into a restricted fund to be used only for the 3 items in the case statement. Thank you for your generosity!

Quo vadis… My Dear Parishioners: Today we celebrate the Twenty-Second Sunday in Ordinary Time. Authentic discipleship does not require us to hunt for suffering. Being faithful to Jesus will bring enough as it is. For many of us the bigger challenge of discipleship is to keep in focus that our self-offering always brings new life. Like Jesus, embracing discipleship means that we, too, are destined for glory. All who wish to be faithful to this call to discipleship must be prepared to suffer—and also prepared to receive new life.
to strive for the very best in their lives. We have concluded Re-Registration for our Religious Education and Sacramental Preparation opportunities for our parish children and young people. No further Re-Registrations will be accepted. Materials, class assignments, catechists, allocation of space, licensing for online materials will be finalized at this time in preparation for a timely beginning. Preparation for the Inter-generational activities have begun. This is an integral part of growing in faith as a family.
This weekend. we give thanks for the blessings of human labor. As a society we reflect on what it means to be co-creators with God in building up a more just and fruitful society. Many of us are the beneficiaries of those who have gone before us and labored hard to build the infrastructure of our nation. Some even gave their lives for this progress. Each of us, too, is called to share our time and talent in the work that we choose or are given to accomplish. Cultivating a sense of perseverance and pride in our work is sometimes sorely lacking. Customer service seems to be less and less. Personal pride in one’s trade likewise seems to be on the decline. No matter what our place in society or what our role in business, each of us has something to contribute. Let us never forget those who have gone before us in building this great nation. Let us never forget our role in continuing to share the blessings of human labor to continue building our nation while offering a living witness to our children and young people.
Many of us have been shaken by the images from Texas in the aftermath of Hurricane Harvey. His Excellency, The Most Reverend Bishop of Trenton has requested all parishes within our Diocese to take up a special second collection. This money will be sent through the USCCB to assist the dioceses affected by this natural disaster. Our Diocese of Trenton received $670,000.00 from the USCCB collections throughout the USA in the aftermath of Superstorm Sandy. Our parish will take up this collection next weekend, 9/10 September 2017 at all Masses. Thank you for your generous support of our sisters and brothers in east and southeast Texas.
As we enjoy this weekend, many of our children and young people have or will soon return to school. Let us remember all students in our prayer. Let us also pray for all teachers as they impart knowledge and challenge young people
Tickets for the Love Thy Neighbor/45th Anniversary are being purchased daily. I am grateful to all those who are planning to participate, have sponsored aspects of the event or taken an ad in the journal. I look forward to a wonderful evening of community building while at the same time raising funds to support the mission, ministries and outreach of our parish. Come and be a part of this beautiful event. Have a great week. Let us remember one another in prayer. Happy Sunday. Peace. Father Jeff.

This dynamic musical will be at the Nederlander Theatre at 208 W. 41st St., so there are plenty of restaurants to choose for lunch. Patti LuPone and Christine Ebersole star in this new musical about beauty titans Helena Rubinstein and Elizabeth Arden. War Paint tells the remarkable story of these two cosmetic titans who defined beauty standards for the first half of the 20th century. Brilliant innovators with humble roots, both women were masters of self-invention who sacrificed everything to become the country’s first major female entrepreneurs. They were also fierce competitors, whose 50year tug-of-war would give birth to an industry that would forever change the face of America. From 5th Avenue society to the halls of Congress, their intense rivalry was ruthless, relentless and legendary – pushing both women to build international empires in a world dominated by men.
